We have started recording most of our weekly sermons, and intend to build up a library of talks for people to refer back to.
So far in 2025, we have had a series on prayer entitled Sacred Pathways, a series from Acts about Peter and Paul going out with the message of Christ, and later in the year will come a series on Intercessory prayer, praying for certain things.
We are just beginning a series on Thursday mornings, looking at the Psalms
Also as we look forward to 2026, we will have a series during Advent, looking at the big story of the Bible.
Sacred Pathways Series
As part of our year long focus on prayer, we preached a series of sermons based on Gary Thomas’s book, Sacred Pathways. We wanted to show that there are many different ways of prayer, and that we should not think that there is one right way to pray, and it can be refreshing to find new ways of approaching God.
Acts Series
This series is inspired by Heather Ross, our curate and distinctive deacon. Heather’s vocation is not to sit in church waiting for people to walk through the door, it is to go out and meet people where they are. So we looked at examples from the book of Acts that show people doing just that – going out with the message of love and hope that Jesus brings.
Psalms Series
On Thursday mornings, we are picking out some of the Psalms to concentrate on, while also considering the shape of the Psalter as a whole – the entire collection of Psalms is a carefully crafted whole, and this is something we never usually consider.
Healing Service
As part of our new fortnightly evening services, Nick preached at a healing service on 20 July. His passage was Mark 9:14-27 – a healing story fraught with difficulty.
Philemon
Towards the end of the New Testament, there is a little letter from Paul. Not a letter to the whole church, but a personal letter to one individual in the church at Colossae. This is the story of how the letter came to be written. It is told as a story, based on the best scholarship we have, but elements of it are just that – a story.
